Just hoping we don't get cut off next fiscal period? But who knows, maybe Amazon.de actually PROFITS on their shipping charges? In which case we'd still probably see those go up as well...

Its just an observation as to how 1 product from a company can alter so many companies' behaviors.

Super glad you've got yours though! Hopefully all my POs stay the course, I'm just missing Charizard and Wario and Greninja (though got a Plan B from a kind member on here).
I agree the US retailers have been poop in getting these over here and also when comes time to pre-order them all chaos breaks loose. Like Gamestop...
I was glad my gamestop managed to get all 6 people in the line Ness and me also my Charizard, pac-man, and the 3 set splatoon. took a while though 2 hours......but that's patience for ya. Hope you get the others you need Knight!!!!
